Awake since early evening, heavy thoughts,
My finger traces stars against the sky it never stops.
Nothing to do, so I write this down,
A paragraph that stretches to a mantra’s sound.

Unfinished, because someone has to see it,
My finger on the glass,hoping he might reach it.
I stare through windows,imagine his eyes speaking…
A name is screaming in my stare,if you could hear it.

They call me upset, quiet, not saying,
This heart is full I keep it from exploding.
Just thinking,if he heard me… it’s concerning.
So tired.But feel my heart it’s still not sleeping.

He stole my heart, but someone else stole his,
Bound by a chain, her gifted, heavy bliss.
This is my prison a blight he handed down.
Does anyone hear how my eyes scream without a sound?

Hold me. Just hold me. Let this heartbeat slow.
Please,make me sleep. I just need to let go.
